01/12/2003 Entry: "Okay, I found a flaw"
The flaw is, this thing will let me do pretty much anything I want, but I can't reset the date or change the time or whatever which is a real shame since I know this will say it's the 12th, but ya know what? It's not really...I want it to still be the 11th because that is where I am ya know, writing about the 11th. Bummer.
Okay so you know I settled down to read my favorite discussion boards--with my bowl of spaghettio's...yah Chef BoyRDee is real big at my house ya know. Anyways, I really should just swear off all of those boards once and for all cause I tell ya I get my knickers in a bunch every time I go over there and read. People are insane. I mean...there's like this very narrow margin of like 2 percent that are NORMAL in this world, and the rest are totally insane. Those of you in the 2 percent catagory know who you are...cause you know...you probably are reading this--and showing interest in my life is really definately a sign of sanity...errr...okay you know...don't think too much about that lol
So what's new...well...I'm gonna have a war with Dish Network. I love my Dish...LOVE IT!!!!! That being said...it's a weird thing cause the truth is I very rarely if ever watch TV but THAT is why I love it! Because the very rare time I DO want to watch TV I can actually watch something worthwhile because Dish has EVERYTHING on it! Okay, great service and lineup...however, they have been stealing me blind. Well...maybe at one time I did tell them they could sign me up for their auto-pay program but ya know two months ago I asked to be taken OFF of the program...and guess who just took another monthly payment out of my account after telling me I was DEFINATELY OFF the auto-pay plan resulting in my checking account being overdrawn by nearly $200. Yup...Dish Network. When I for the fourth time in less than 2 months called about this issue--the lady actually tried to tell me that it was impossible for them to have taken the money because I was not on auto-pay. Uhhuh...okaaaaaaaaay. After rechecking, she admitted I was STILL on auto-pay...my my...I don't know HOW that could have happened. (I know I know...oooh ohhhh Pick me! Pick me!) At any rate, went out today to fax them a copy of my bank statement showing all of the fees my bank has charged me and showing how much they needed to pay me back. The good thing is...only one check actually was sent back. It was to Dominos Pizza. Poor guys. It was the first time I've ever ordered Dominos here too...which is sad...I was kinda glad it wasn't my water...rent...electricity...something I have to have ya know...cause that is terrible...but still...Dominos has those new Kickers...and you know those *might* fall into the "gotta have" catagory too dang it. Well, if Dish does what I demanded (dish on demand anyone?)--I'll have a nifty little letter to take to Mr. Pizza Man so that he will have to acknowledge that *I* didn't do anything wrong--not that he still won't think I'm a little shifty...those things are hard to live down ya know.
Dish delimmas aside...we went to Walmart...I love walmart too...sure am glad I don't have a bounced check THERE lol Bought more stuff to organize my desk because I have decided that my desk is the root of all that bothers me. Really. I can never find anything. Now reality says, the rest of my home is fairly organized. My children's rooms sometimes verge on the rediculous as I have more bins, containers, labels and such than Home Depot. (really!) And yet...my desk is a wreck...something between a tornado, hurricane, and typhoon at as yet unrecorded speeds hits this desk on a daily basis. It's a real problem. One I am determined to solve. I'll let you know when I do--so you can all rejoice with me. (look for an update to this sometime in like...2034 or maybe a few months sooner)
The other exciting thing is my newly 6 year old (R) has a loose tooth. I know in most homes that's not an exceptionally exciting thing...however...for my daughter this has quickly become one of the biggest events in her whole 6 years! Why? Because she's literally scared to death lol Seriously...her tooth was a "little" loose, nothing serious at all...just a little bitta wiggle here and there and she was complaining about some acheyness....then tonight she wanted to snack on some butter toast before bed. She bit down into it...and I'm sure you all remember that whole moment when a tooth goes from "yeah someday that tooth is going to fall out" to "oh my God that tooth is going to fall out!" Yah. It was a big discovery for my dear R. She went into hysterics like I have nary a description for--and I'm thinking...my dear LORD what has she done...lost a toe? Popped out an eye? Severed a limb?? Nope...her tooth is loose...and it BLED. Okay all that aside, I was a model Mommy if I say so myself once I actually calmed down from thinking we were moments from dialing 911. Once she had stopped screaming enough so she could actually HEAR me, I explained that this was a very special thing--it was a sign that she was growing up. That this was something every person in the whole wide world goes through because they grow up--because God made us that way--and that God made her teeth just the way they were supposed to be, and this was the way God meant for this to happen. So then I told her besides...it would look awfully funny if she had a mouth full of two rows of teeth, and she agreed and finally laughed, and I quit holding my breath at that point I think.
So now...she won't eat anything because she's convinced if she does her tooth will fall out lol I encouraged her to wiggle it but she said she was NOT going to wiggle it because it hurts to do that. I shudder to think of what lies ahead for my dear sweet daughter, as I know the pains we suffer through the many phases of our lives, I *pray* that she gets a little more used to it by then lol
She of course called Grandma & Grandpa to tell them, and her Daddy called so she got to tell him too which she was so very thrilled about =o) Tonight I am tired so I might actually go to bed before the crack of dawn. Miracles DO happen. =o)
I have one more thing to do...I'm uploading a cartoon for my bestest buddy. She'll laugh about it and then she'll think of me. =o) I hope she does because I love and miss her tremendously.
The Cartoon
Night night all! God bless and keep!
